Markets in the 21st century have evolved significantly from those of the 20th century. This evolution necessitates that the 21st century investor will need to adapt in order to thrive. We believe that a differentiated macro-focused investment approach can help investors better realize their financial goals. Our portfolios are designed to offer investors access to hedge fund style global macro investing in a more cost-effective and significantly more liquid solution.
Our strategy is tailored for modern markets. Our approach encompasses a dynamic macro strategy, a heavy focus on risk-management, and a strong emphasis on downside protection. We prioritize absolute returns over relative returns and embrace unique market perspectives. Our approach is dual-focused: in the short term, we utilize a data-driven signal-based methodology to position client portfolios for a variety of market scenarios; in the long term, we understand that minimizing losses, essential for compounding returns, is best achieved through a scalable, data-driven process.
1. Dynamic Macro Approach
Our dynamic macro approach adapts to the changes in the macroeconomic environment.
Global Economic Analysis: Understanding global economic trends is crucial. We analyze key factors like economic growth, inflation, and monetary policy worldwide to anticipate market movements and adjust portfolios accordingly. We lean on leading indicators with robust predictive capability to guide our market outlook and positioning.
Flexibility: Markets are not static and neither are our investments; they are continuously adjusted in response to new economic data and trends. This ensures that our portfolios remain aligned with the current economic environment.
Risk Management: By focusing on the macroeconomic picture, we aim to better identify and manage risks. This could include shifting to a more defensive portfolio posture during an economic downturn or capitalizing on growth opportunities in emerging markets. We look to position portfolios to be robust to multiple types of macroeconomic shocks and prioritize macro-environmental balance.
Diverse Asset Allocation: Our dynamic macro approach often leads to a diverse range of investments, including stocks, bonds, commodities, and even currencies. This diversification is key to effectively managing risks and taking advantage of global opportunities.
Predictive Insights: We leverage big-data and our own proprietary machine-learning models to stay ahead of market trends by making quantitative predictions on the macro environment and financial markets.
2. Absolute over Relative Returns
Absolute returns are our “north star” and are the focus of our investment process.
Individual Goals: Our view emphasizes achieving the specific return objectives of an individual investor rather than just trying to outperform a benchmark or index. It's all about helping our investors meet their personal financial goals.
Risk-Adjusted Returns: We aim to deliver returns consistent with both historical and forward looking estimates of portfolio level risk. This ensures that our investors are being adequately compensated for uncertainty and volatility.
Market Independence: Our goal is consistent growth, irrespective of market conditions, prioritizing steady performance over merely beating the market.
Customized Strategies: Portfolios are tailored to individual risk tolerances and return objectives. Investments are chosen based on their ability to contribute to these personalized goals.
Long-Term Focus, Short-Term Flexibility: Our absolute return focused strategies are focused on delivering sustainable long-term performance while maintaining short-term flexibility to adapt to quickly moving markets.
